The Benefits of Investing in US Shares
With the ASX representing just a small fraction of all investment opportunities across the world, we take a look at some of the benefits associated with investing in US shares.
Winners are grinners, and there was no shortage of happy faces on the SME community’s night of nights. Check out the full list of winners from this year’s awards.
With 214 finalists representing 150 businesses over 24 categories, the Optus My Business Awards 2016 was a sell-out event. Hosted on Friday, 18 November at Sydney’s Four Points by Sheraton hotel, the evening was filled with plenty of fun, frivolity and excitement – as well as a few tears.
There could only be one winner per category, and only one of these winners could take home the My Business – Business of the Year award.
Without further ado, My Business is pleased to announce this year’s winners. Congratulations to everyone who entered and particularly to all the winners and finalists, who demonstrated outstanding achievement in their respective fields.

“The Fintech space is about disruptive, innovative technology and finding new and better ways to deliver superior customer outcomes. We are challenging the status quo in the Financial Services industry; our approach has been validated not only by winning this award, but by our peers and clients too” he added.
